Gamakatsu LS-5213 Hook Nickel Barbed

Gamakatsu LS-5213 Hook Nickel Barbed — Reliable Bait Hold for Worm and Sea Fishing

The Gamakatsu LS-5213 is a worm hook (Wurmhaken) built for anglers who target flatfish and cod from the surf, as well as eel anglers using earthworms or lugworms in fresh and saltwater alike.

Two Bait-Keeper Barbs for a Secure Worm Presentation

Two barbs along the hook shank grip worm baits firmly in place, reducing bait loss during casting and keeping your presentation intact through strong tidal currents. Whether you're threading a dendrobaena or a lugworm, the bait stays where you put it.

Inward-Curved Point for Fast, Clean Hook-Sets

The sharp, inward-curved point is designed to turn and find purchase quickly on the bite, driving home efficiently in the tough mouths of flatfish and cod. The nickel coating provides a bright finish that resists corrosion in saltwater conditions.
